Eriacta ®

Eriacta is indicated to manage erectile dysfunction. It is important to note that you should not use Eriacta if you are also using nitrates. Nitrates are generally assigned to manage chest pain. When you take Eriacta while on Nitrates, remember that this may cause rapid and alarming drop of blood pressure.

Talk to your doctor about your overall health condition to make sure that you are well enough to have a sexual intercourse. If you feel any pain in your chest, nausea or any added discomforts while having sex, consult your doctor right away.

Seldom, there are cases of erection that lasts for more than four hours. If you experience this kind of problem go to the emergency room right away to prevent long-term damage to your penis.

If you are above 65 years old, or you are suffering from any severe liver or renal diseases, your physician might prescribe a first dose of 25 milligrams, the smallest dosage of Eriacta. If you are under the medication of protease inhibitor, like for example you are being treated for HIV, your physician will also prescribed a 25 milligrams dose of Eriacta and may bound you to a maximum dosage of 25 milligram tablet of Eriacta over a period of two days.

In unusual cases of men taking PDE5 inhibitors or oral erectile dysfunction drugs, including Eriacta, there are reports of unexpected partial or full vision loss. There are no strong studies yet that prove that the loss of vision is directly caused by these drugs for it can also be caused by other several factors. However, if you feel any changes or loss in vision, stop taking these medications and consult your doctor immediately.

If you are suffering from prostate problems or elevated blood pressure and you are prescribed with the medications called alpha blockers, your physician might also give you a lower dose of Eriacta as first dose.

Eriacta should not be taken along with other medications that can cause penile erections. For instance, Revatio also has sildenafil, the main ingredient found in Eriacta. So do not take Revatio or any medications that can cause erections together with Eriacta.

It is also important to remember that Viagra will not make you protected from sexually transmitted diseases like HIV, gonorrhea, syphilis, etc.
